- Understanding of pharma retail compliance (expiry, batch management, FEFO) is desirable.
Key Skills
- Analytical and structured problem-solving.
- Strong data modeling and dashboarding ability.
- Business acumen in balancing availability with working capital.
- Ability to influence stakeholders remotely across geographies.
- Discipline in process design and governance.
